Boundless

Boundless doesn’t break the mold in the gaming world in any meaningful way. It does however embrace the survival voxel genre and carries it tenderly into the land of MMOs. With a strong community foundation and interesting building and crafting systems, it’s a game that will give players a big bang for their buck. Boundless isn’t a free to play MMO, but it also doesn’t carry a mandatory subscription fee.

Ultimately, despite its long development cycle, Boundless is still very much a new experience for a lot of players. Much like games like Eve Online or even Black Desert Online, time will be the real measure of how well this player driven MMO really works but at present I’m having a blast running around and exploring because that's how I like to play!

It’s such a large time investment that I can’t commit to. Still, there are players who will love the game loop, probably fans of Minecraft or My Life is Feudal. It’s a technically sound game and I did enjoy having two independent hands for holding equipment, but it all seems to get lost in the wash for me as I think about how far off the end goal is. Boundless just tries to make the journey sweeter by showing you an enticing end.
